Happy Easter to all.


O death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? Christ is risen and life is freed, Christ is risen and the tomb is emptied of the dead: for Christ, being risen from the dead, has become the Leader and Reviver of those who had fallen asleep. To Him be glory and power for ever and ever. Amen.

The Paschal Homily of St. John Chrysostom

LET all Pious men and all lovers of God rejoice in the splendor of this feast; let the wise servants blissfully enter into the joy of their Lord; let those who have borne the burden of Lent now receive their pay, and those who have toiled since the first hour, let them now receive their due reward; let any who came after the third hour be grateful to join in the feast, and those who may have come after the sixth, let them not be afraid of being too late, for the Lord is gracious and He receives the last even as the first. He gives rest to him who comes on the eleventh hour as well as to him who has toiled since the first: yes, He has pity on the last and He serves the first; He rewards the one and is generous to the other; he repays the deed and praises the effort.

COME you all: enter into the joy of your Lord. You the first and you the last, receive alike your reward; you rich and you poor, dance together; you sober and you weaklings, celebrate the day; you who have kept the fast and you who have not, rejoice today. The table is richly loaded: enjoy its royal banquet. The calf is a fatted one: let no one go away hungry. All of you enjoy the banquet of faith; all of you receive the riches of his goodness.

LET no one grieve over his poverty, for the universal kingdom has been revealed; let no one weep over his sins, for pardon has shone from the grave; let no one fear death, for the death of our Savior has set us free: He has destroyed it by enduring it, He has despoiled Hades by going down into its kingdom, He has angered it by allowing it to taste of his flesh.

WHEN Isaiah foresaw all this, he cried out: "O Hades, you have been angered by encountering Him in the nether world." Hades is angered because frustrated, it is angered because it has been mocked, it is angered because it has been destroyed, it is angered because it has been reduced to naught, it is angered because it is now captive. It seized a body, and lo! it discovered God; it seized earth, and, behold! it encountered heaven; it seized the visible, and was overcome by the invisible.

O death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? Christ is risen and life is freed, Christ is risen and the tomb is emptied of the dead: for Christ, being risen from the dead, has become the Leader and Reviver of those who had fallen asleep. To Him be glory and power for ever and ever. Amen.

yes because its the spring equinox, It's the beginning of the new phase of fertility. Eggs and Rabbits. Get it?

This is why the death and rising of Christ is on different days each year, although you'd think that the day would be the same.

Easter like the Mosaic Passover is calculated by a lunar phenomenon. The bible does not specify a specific date but does admonish us to celebrate, each within his own rite and practice, this most important of Christian HolyDays.

No, Christians who have a true understanding to why the date changes each year and what the bible says on the subject and what the Church has decided and practices on this subject, would NOT think that the day would be the same.
but Glass, who is not a Christian, and appears to have an affinity for promoting pagan understandings, would think that the day would be the same each year.

The important thing to remember is that the death and resurrection of Christ is THE most important religious HolyDay for Christians.



Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures . . . .

For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen. And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins!

(1 Corinthians 15:1–4, 16–17)

The crucifixion is the REDEMPTION of all of mankind. It provided the only basis upon which sins can be forgiven.

The resurrection is the proof that the crucifixion accomplished what Christ was born into this world to accomplish.

Christ was the perfect passover LAMB of God who taketh away the sins of the world. The God / Man Christ was the only possible perfect sacrifice required.

"And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission." Hebrews 9:22

SALVATION is not the same thing as REDEMPTION. You only know for sure you are SAVED when you see where you are after you die. SALVATION depends on the state of your soul at the time you die, and that depends on how you live your life, in every thought, word, and deed, and how you are careful to confess your sins and keep yourself out of deadly (mortal) sin.

look up: The Ancient Pagan Origins of Easter Christians should not celebrate this holiday.
(Just like xmas and the Assumption)
https://answersingenesis.org/holidays/easter/is-the-date-of-easter-of-pagan-origin/

lunar phenomenon = moon cycles = pagan calendar... moreover most religious holidays are pagan celebration days, that was decided that way to promote conversion.

actually before rome became a christian empire, there were 13 months in a year because lunar cycles are shorter. Every decent organic farmer will plant seeds at the new moon... pagan? Nope it is the understanding the vibratory universe, planets' resonance have been proven scientifically and caused by the sounds they emit.

... the failure to merge science and spirituality, that is WHY the world is going down

[singular_me]

Decided to revive interesting threads to demonstrate that the pagan tag is too often linked to ignorance. Pagan celebration days all had a connection with astroloigy err, astro-theology, which still is with us... sun being 12 billion miles away, 12 months of the year, 12 tribes, 12 apostles for example

that is why i dont worship any man made religions but the immutable principles of Light, all proven scientifically

I think it's pretty bold to accuse me of something without knowing me personally.

I merely point out that the "religion" has numerous anomalies and practices which are not Christian related or in open conflict with the word of God as shared by those who have heard it. Some of them are fairly basic. Temples, Idols to name two.

I'm not the one who created or introduced these things. I simply point them out. I am highlighting the other side. I would be much happier observing the resurrection if it was fixed according to the date that it happened rather than in line with celestial movements which indicates it has been hijacked. Along with so many other things.

The main reason I dislike these situations is because energy is important and these ways are designed to siphon off and divert energy from us into the hands of others. People might think it's good will to all men kind of thing, positive energy in their hearts but it is diverted energy going to something different to what they believe and I'm simply not going to allow mine to be misused in that way.

Celebrate the resurrection every day then! I just think it is a good idea to celebrate it one day, and to get people to understand what happened nearly 2000 years ago, is in itself a miracle, the Easter tradition has allowed that to happen, no matter what day it actually happened. :)

just because pagan did something at a certain when doesnt outrank the design or designer that built it. you have it exactly backwards.

because negro stabbed somebody knives are evil? that weak-ass 'logic' may work on humanist peon dupes, but not here

[crimethink]

Resurrection Day was "near" the Hebrew Passover of the year of Jesus' death (30 to 33 AD). Since it is a fixed event...the most important day since Creation...it should always be on the same day of the year.

We all know "Easter" was syncretized with European pagan tradition. And the lunar cycle of the Hebrew-Babylonian calendar was adopted.

As Neuro says, we should celebrate that Resurrection every day.

[singular_me]

well you just INverted what I meant. And this inversion is double talking. I am completely into intelligent design and I have stipulated this several times. I have demonstrated that the bible is filled with esotericism, as much as any other religion and i will continue to point that out to show how vain are people when they accuse others belief systems of characteristics that are in their own. Because it is what we are talking about here.

as for your racial example, it is a very lame one.... I regard anybody using hitler/jews/black sword, as a loser. There is a reason why Jesus argued for peace and non romantic love (non coercion), so was he a humanist too?

And yes I repeat again, the world is in this mess because humanity has failed to merge spirituality and science. You do not like that and call me a humanist because you cannot grasp this ? I do not give a damn

At least Neuro and CT realize this when saying that the Life/Creator has to be celebrate daily because the bible's dates are not accurate anyway

Trump’s Easter message: “Jews rule! Happy Passover!” (http://www.veteranstoday.com/2017/04/16/trump-easter/)

Is the President being held hostage? Was this video a cry for help? Or did his captors issue it to send a message: “We have completed our coup. We are in total control. Do not even think of f*ing with us!”

Watch the above video again. What is wrong with this picture?

Look, I LOVE religious minorities, okay? I’m Muslim myself. I love my Jewish friends. I used to practice Buddhist meditation. And I still revere the wisdom of the Tao and the Upanishads and the many wonderful Native American spiritual traditions.


But let’s face it: The United States of America is a Christian-majority country. Today is Easter. The President’s holiday message should be: “Happy Easter!”


Instead, the President of the (Christian-majority) United States has issued an Easter message that looks more like a hostage video. A professor at a major university who saw it emailed me:


Oh my God. Talk about the demeanor of a mind-controlled zombie…..


Instead of saying “happy Easter” and talking about Jesus, and maybe throwing in some eggs and rabbits as a sop to Christian-pagan syncretism, Trump begins by rambling on and on about how wonderful Jews are. He couldn’t make it any clearer that his main holiday message is “Happy Passover!” When he finally gets around to mentioning Easter, it’s almost an afterthought.

The video has abysmally poor production values, considering that it’s coming from the White House. It’s too dark. And Trump looks extremely low-energy –like a kidnapping victim in a hostage video with someone offscreen pointing a gun at his head or a knife at his foreskin.

http://www.veteranstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/1-trump-passover-640x463.jpg
The weirdest holiday video ever made by any sitting president?


Trump’s “Passover video” reminds me of the nationally televised speech by George W. Bush in early December, 2001. Bush gave that speech, in which he monotonously intoned the shibboleths of the Israeli-fabricated “War on Terror,” in front of an Israeli flag, not an American one.

What makes Trump’s “f*ck Easter, Happy Passover” message even weirder is the whole history between Jews and Christians. (As a Muslim, I am able to get some distance and objectivity on this very sensitive issue.)

Until around 1800, when the Rothschilds took over the financial centers of Western Europe and imposed their ideological hegemony on the West, Christians took it for granted that “the Jews killed Jesus,” as the Gospels tell us in so many words. Jews, for their part, evinced extreme loathing for Christianity in general and Jesus in particular. The Christian was “Esau,” the naive, hairy, primitive fool who needed to be swindled out of his birthright by Jacob “the heel” AKA “Israel.”

And Jesus, according to the Talmud, is being boiled eternally in excrement.

Maybe it’s a good thing that the Jews and Christians are getting over their horrible history of mutual hatred. But it strikes me as odd that the way they’re getting over it is through a stealth Jewish-Zionist takeover of the West, accompanied by what can only be called the annihilation of traditional Christianity. Trump’s Easter message, coming in the wake of the ouster of Steve Bannon (Catholic) and elevation of Jared Kushner (Kosher Nostra) is a sign of the times.

I not happy with part my post and I didn't get to finish it. I generally post my thoughts then edit a couple times until I'm happy with it. Everytime I tried to get into edit, everything froze. After a couple hours of watching the thing go around I gave up and signed off. Been crazy busy since then.

Strangely the next morning when I went to work, I failed to latch the door fully behind me when I went in and someone followed me in off the street. It's a thing people do for some reason. Like the building calls to people or something. Anyway He wanted to talk to me about the Supernatural. His name was Chris. Not sure what denomination. Seemed like maybe a JW. Another encounter of curious timing.

Anyway I think I got the calendar and celestial movements thing ass backwards. When you think about it, the celestial movements are actually the only true clock or time piece we have. They are regular occurring and when we pin down when they occur then we know what time of the year it is. The Equinox's and the Winter/Summer Solstices.

So logically the resurrection can be pegged to a regular annual phenomenon which is unchanging. It is only the man made calendar which makes things look out of whack.... but it is that calendar that is out of whack and makes it look like its random.

I agree it should be celebrated every day.

Coupled with the ages.... where it was once the age of the Bull - Taurus, the Golden Calf when Moses went to the mount, Now it is Pisces - JC, the fisher of men. Catholic priests wearing fish hats. They say we are supposed to be going into aquarius but I've heard people say the progression of the Equinox's doesn't seem to be progressing. We don't seem to be moving through Pisces as expected. Not sure, haven't looked into it deeply.

[singular_me]

all man-made religions are astro-theology based... that is why I wont let any calendar tell me what./when to celebrate... Life is Life and I celebrate this gift every day.

[7th trump]

I have to say Singular has all you beat on this one.
Even you crimethink gave credence to the original post knowing full well (at least you project you do) that as christians you are not to celebrate any pagan rituals....but you did.
God does not approve any of His people to even say "god speed" to that He disapproves of. By doing so you are agreeing to their sinister ways.
Saying happy easter is going along with pagan rituals that God detests.

Did you celebrate easter by eating a glazed ham too crimethink?
Did you hand out eggs and candy to the kiddos?

And just so you dont start another bullshit arguement...I did not hand out any candy or eggs or partake of any pagan rituals. My kids know the truth about santa claus, the easter bunny, tooth fairy and any other bullshit lie. They dont even celebrate their birth days in my house.

[7th trump]

all man-made religions are astro-theology based... that is why I wont let any calendar tell me what./when to celebrate... Life and Life and I celebrate this gift every day.If you were to actually read the bible enough to catch on...........God follows the sun (or light) calender while everything else is lunar (monthly) Currently the calendar used today follows the moon month or lunar calendar. Every month has a full moon. Which is the actual the end of each month by this calendar but they dont for some reason. Even the start and stop of a "day" is backwards. A biblical day ends and starts at sunset....not at midnight.
This is why many do not understand why certain christian events are not on the same day every year. And when you want to follow the end time events you have to follow the sun calendar to get the time and events right.
For instance many believe the harvest in the Bible is the todays fall when its actually summer when everything is fruiting and things are edible (biblically harvested).
The fake Christ appears out of harvest...either early spring, late fall or winter (one of the 666 clues, if you have wisdom.....that is humble ears to listen). The real Christ will appear in the harvest months (summer for the northern hemisphere) when the earth is right for His harvest. What actual day that is is anyone's guess but I do know this. Christ appears threes days after the two witnesses ( I believe are Moses and Jeremiah) are slain in the streets of jerusalem.

Ah, so you're a Jewhovah's Witness. That's makes sense for you.

You're so much holier than us! You won't celebrate Easter or Christmas, but you will celebrate the murder machine of Mystery America each & every day. And which does God find more offensive, celebrating Christianized holidays focused on Christ, or, celebrating Satanism flying the red, white, and blue rag?

So throwing the baby out with the bath water is your kind of thing huh?

Do you also throw out the bible because of a few fake christians?
Of course not fool, so why do you suggest your countries red white and blue is a rag?

Your reasoning is flawed and very unchristian like.
Thank God Christ isnt like you and give up on everyone because of a few turds like yourself.

Well, happy belated Easter everyone! The best thing about Easter is spending time with family. That's one thing God wants us to appreciate, the gift of time with family. Hope you all had a good Easter last week.

Easter is THE only real Christian holiday

The Passover was an event for the Jews and it is very SPECIFIC (month AND day)
The crucification was also God's timing and it corresponds to the SAME TIME period AS the Passover and is VERY SPECIFIC
This is no coincidence!!

Passover = Jews
Easter = Christians

Easter replaces the passover as the New Testament REPLACES the Old Testament

Easter is not a pagan word
